"The most important thing in life, as in war, is to have a second line of defense where you can rely ....... perish not only rely on it. "
Hans Habe . "Dawn in the ruins" p. .340.
The comment but poured into a war novel where it seems Obviously, it is in roam own life where the subtlety of the comment displays a permanent lifeguard effect. It is not having a single line of defense on which to support one's life. The salud.el love, family, work or profession may be sufficient but not always. In these three columns remedaría the song well that of " There are three things in life: health, money and love ...", which would constitute the first line of defense must add a fourth column that could be the second line of defense.
What is the fourth column?. I have no doubt that moral or physically healthy hobbies, well established and disciplined, in which one can rely to be able to have in times of attack or weakness of the first a comfortable refuge. This does not mean you lose touch with reality, so that second line should be accessible to interested hobbies and easily implemented at any time, but we have as disciplined a performance as if it were working. Recipe essential to even think to be happy without happiness, and it leads to idleness if we take it as work, the work will eventually be also entertainment.
Yes, if shelter is not only metaphorical the second line has more power. It is able to bind closely to a physical space, closed or not, natural or built, and where they could feel the changing seasons, cold, heat and thermal neutrality that specifies neither shelter nor relief.
Addendum of February 7 .-
I keep mulling over the issue, even as individualistic comment yesterday and that Ilona has countered.
What happens is that sometimes the second line of defense to have it, and more if built without relying on the assistance of anyone, can become a guarantee of certain moral convencional.50 years ago could work to reinforce the first line with a numerous offspring or a plurality of jobs, and that was praised. But it also could reinforce the spine of feeling love-family {} is not a brood of children but to love more or less made up for the possible clandestine love dissatisfactions officer and a disciplined leisure or hobby would avoided.
big and small History is full of lovers who supplied officers failed love. But that leisure is essential that well disciplined it is, for the delivery or passion for the second line can not do to forget your obligations. These ancient kings distracted with keeping the kingdom for hunting or other hobbies vile! How many kingdoms were lost?, How much wealth has been squandered or left to create the lazy indolence of rulers idle?
